I did not know there was no sewer hook up. For $50 a night, that is outrageous. We’re full time on the road and I have never paid that much for just water and electric. The ground is uneven, but the guy who helped me was cool. He took me right to our spot. We’re only here to buy a new Brinkley, and then we are gone. Do not recommend if you don’t have to.

No rooms - you bring your own. No service - you do your own thing. Been coming here for 20+ years and really enjoy our time. Charlie and Anita are great hosts and we enoy catching up with many of the seasonal campers when here.

This is a good place if you want to buy an rv and just park it here to stay and you come spend the summer. It has very uneven, absolutely not level spots. Come with everything you need cause there isn’t a store. The restrooms are ok. They are remodeled but they used rough wood ( very rough wood). You can not touch or bump against or let you cloths touch it or you will get slivers or poked by the wood. Or both. The people are nice. Maybe a2.5 to a 3 max.need fixed up. The pool is nice if that’s what you are looking for and it has a cute little playground. Nice trees. We wanted full hookups and for the price we paid for one night we thought that’s what we would get. But it wasn’t. We are on a long trip and so far it has been the most expensive one we have stayed at with the least amount of amenities. It is nice and quiet though.

Absolutely would not recommend trying to stay at this campground. I called today and spoke, if it could be called that, with an incredibly rude woman. I called to inquire about availability for next summer but as soon as I got “Hi I was just wondering if you had any sites avai..” she hatefully yelled “NOPE” into the phone so I simply hung up. If this is the type of customer service available here I wouldn’t want to stay anyway. I don’t think I can recommend this less and they should be ashamed of their staff.

This was a nice little campground adjacent to the dealership. We came here to view campers and it just so happened that they were having their Halloween festivities. We enjoyed our stay! The permanent/seasonal campers were friendly and welcoming! The campground had a lot of seasonal activities such as a swimming pool, playground, and mini golf. The bath house was very nice and clean. I'm sure we will be back!
